Big City Drinkin posted:We have a Coton de Tulear (a breed in the Bichon family), and he’s a really good dog inside, only kind of chuffing when people are out in the hallway. But outside on the leash he’s a TERROR, flipping out at other dogs/people. And he’s fine with other dogs and people as long as he doesn’t have a leash on. We’ve spent thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours on training to get him more comfortable on his leash, but I’m kind of resigned to the fact that it’s just a part of him now. put a vr helmet on him

Tato posted:Threads about dogs are the worst because people try to make jokes while other posters fall over themselves weeping and crying, accusing everyone else in the thread of being a dog murderer. what's the worst kind of dog murderer? a human who murders dogs or a dog who does murders?

Aegis Bear posted:The reason these threads are always like this (and why the 'problem dog'/'problem owner' debate is neverending whether it's a chihuahua or great dane) is because way too many people own, raise, and handle animals that they don't know poo poo about. This isn't just a problem with dogs, for example holy poo poo so many people own cats and don't even attempt to learn what their poor pet's basic body language means, but the problem is loudest in dogs because dog bites make the news. my parents are this kind of dog owner and it sucks rear end. they've raised three dogs so far using the Cesar Milan Method(tm) and they were all neurotic, jumpy, and terrified animals they raised their kids not so differently

I had one of those dogs, before she lost her way in the house she would scratch at my door at 2 in the morning and lead me to the backdoor to let her out to go pee. She was a good girl, 100% recommend

It would be like building all future models on training horses based on how a freaked out, bored, horse acts while alone in a stable. Basically: the old school Alpha Male thing is bullshit and wolf packs are usually big families with momma and poppa wolf as the leaders. They dominate because they’re the parents.

It would be like building all future models on training horses based on how a freaked out, bored, horse acts while alone in a stable. It's still not actually useful for uh... basically anyone's psychological purposes but there is ONE scenario where the "Alpha wolf dominance struggle" isn't ENTIRELY wrong. If prey is sufficiently plentiful and competition sufficiently scarce, which functionally just means "when wolves are re-introduced to a national park or wildlife refuge," daughters will stick around for one giant wolf pack instead of forming their own with a mate, and have kids within that original wolf pack, and those daughters specifically will have a degree of dominance struggle for who gets to be directly below grandma and grandpa wolf. Grandma and grandpa wolf are still the most in charge though.

secular woods sex posted:Serious question: does having multiple dogs help? Pretty sure, yeah. Like, farms have more than one dog at a time because you need to keep them from going too stir-crazy for dogs to be useful. Am reminded of the goon whose dogs were named Wallace and Grommit, but pretty sure the dogs think they have the shared name Wallaceandgrommit because they've never been apart.

A friend of mine has two that his now wife brought with when they first moved in together. Both dogs go absolutely crazy with barking whenever someone comes over and one wears a dog diaper because it will piss and poo poo everywhere. This one will follow people around the house barking the whole time but the other one is diaper free and will actually chill out after 10 mins, enough so to be friendly like a normal dog. Both have the eye crusties.

I too used to live in an apartment complex where a bunch of people had these creatures, the incessant barking is bad but even worse, often it doesn't even sound like barking like a real dog would do, but something mechanical like a squeaky rusty door being opened.

Lil Swamp Booger Baby posted:Golden Retrievers are generally some of the most hosed up dogs I saw healthwise, it's not wonder they tend to die young. Those dogs get utterly hosed up and Golden Retriever owners almost always let the dog run around in filth and poo poo and don't come in for enough checkups. I dunno wtf it is with Golden Retriever owners. Those dogs seem to die by the bushel. It's jacked up. It's worse than Pit owners for pure negligence. Also, late, but probably because Golden Retrievers have the reputation for being cute friendly family dogs and are bought by thoughtless shitheads as the pretty new toy from inbred puppy mills and left in the backyard (if they're lucky) all day alone to go stir-crazy. Basically same as the little yap monsters but with even less room to escape from their own filth.

Basically same as the little yap monsters but with even less room to escape from their own filth. Golden Retrievers and Labs are basically the barkiest dogs and also the most likely to maul people. Owners that should never have such needy breeds get them too often. It's rich that people complain about small dogs because small dogs are easy. It was far, far, more likely for me to see poorly trained large dogs because they are uniformly the ones more abused or improperly trained. Better a dog spoiled than one neglected or trained using dogshit pseudoscience dominance theory and turning into an angry, neurotic piece of poo poo. There are so many hosed up Pits that need serious rehabilitation and instead people whine about small dogs because they've internalized some weird masculine power projecting idea of what a dog "should be" like bizarro incels. Hence why the aggression towards them is such transparent bullshit to me.
